The Netflix drama ‘Adolescence’, which has sparked conversation around toxic online content and youth violence, will be screened in UK secondary schools, Keir Starmer has announced.

The UK Prime Minister said he wanted to talk about "what can we do as a society to stop and prevent young boys being dragged into this whirlpool of hatred and misogyny".

To discuss, Andrea is joined by Tara Duggan from Newstalk’s Newsroom, Alex Cooney, CEO of Cyber Safe Kids and more.
